For the years during which the metal license plates are not issued, in lieu thereof, validation decals or other devices suitable for attaching to a motor vehicle license plate shall be issued. The validation decal or device shall indicate the period for which it was issued and shall, when properly affixed to the license plate, evidence payment for the motor vehicle license fees and taxes for the period indicated thereon.
